Abstract

A connector element, which is composed of two carrier members with cover plates that are held in alignment by guide rails received in guide channels of the member, is provided with an arrangement of collecting surfaces for collecting excess adhesive materials and immersion fluids to keep these fluids and materials from the guide channels of the carrier members. The collecting surfaces can be formed by parting webs, by grooves in the carrier members, or beveled edge surfaces of the cover plates of each carrier member.
